            @kusselin but if you are running in a container

            the the mm.sh script should be running as server
            as there is no ui on a container

            npm run server

            not

            npm start

              @sdetweil said in MagicMirror install on proxmox LXC Container?:

              @kusselin pm2 logs --lines=50
              not good to install under root

              Hello, thank you for the tips…o.k. under root this is nuicht so good…
              Again from the beginning…I install ubuntu 22.04 standard in a LXC container. I have also created the container by default. This has also all worked great. After that I started the container.

              So when I am on the console it is so that I log in with root and pass. But that is not so good.
              So I have now created a standard user with pass. Habs then times made as on Rasoian with user “pi” udn the default password for it. To test!

              So, now I log in with user “pi” and the default password…now I stand on the “prompt”

              login as: pi
              pi@192.168.200.74's password:

              pi@MagicMirror-live:~$ ^C
              pi@MagicMirror-live:~$
              
              

              Then I take the script from you here:

              bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
              

              So and if I then start your script via Console then comes the message “[sudo] password or pi”.

              [sudo] password for pi:
              
              

              But you just said that the installation under “root” (sudo) is not good? Yes what is right now? What do I have to do now?

              Do I have to insert “su” here then??

              I don’t have a “sudo” password for pi - how do I create it?

              Do I have to log in again with “pi” and the default pass and then create a “root” pass for pi?

              and if I then take the root password from my created LXC container, it always comes “sorry try again”.

              [sudo] password for pi:
              Sorry, try again.
              [sudo] password for pi:
              
              

              What am I doing wrong here?

              This is what I do not understand and do not know. Can you please describe me this in understandable sentences briefly how I have to proceed with the installation?

              Thank you

                    change the script that starts mm from

                    npm start
                    to
                    npm run server

                    a container has no desktop,
                    npm start tries to load the graphical UI using electron.

                    npm run server

                    just starts the server side, for external browsers to access

                    I can’t tell what that error is, but the internet has moved to https connections by default, and many browsers warn when accessing http sites like MagicMirror is running.

                    so you either have to accept the warning, or find a way in the browser to disable to message

                    https setup requires a certificate, which is not free.

                                @kusselin remember, a container is a ‘system’
                                with its own IP address different than than the container hosting system (typically 172.xx.yy.zz)

                                also, localhost means ONLY apps INSIDE this same ‘system’, can access… so that means a browser running IN the container… oops… not possible

                                SO, you have to change the MM config.js to allow apps OUTSIDE the container to access the MM app
                                and THEN on the container setup , map the container MM port to some host port … (so u can access from another pc, phone, tablet, outside the container hosting system )

                                address:“0.0.0.0”.
                                ipWhitelist:[],

                                you didn’t have to reinstall mm… one install runs three ways
                                full (ui on same ‘system’), npm start
                                server (ui on some OTHER system (have to change config) npm run server
                                client (just the UI part), npm run client

                                    @kusselin yes, to help keep this organized for you

                                    think of a container as a pi/nuc/laptop/extra machine with no display, running in text mode
                                    and the only way to get to it is thru a proxy machine (your container host)

                                    and then some other machine, laptop, phone, tablet that wants to display info…

                                    so other machine, phone, tablet connects to proxy, who forwards request to pi, and returns response back.
                                    the proxy doesnt DO anything but transport the info .

                                        one question: Where can i change the position from horizontal to vertical?

                                        In what config can i change that?

                                          @kusselin well that becomes much more troublesome…

                                          the container doesn’t have display, so u can’t force it there
                                          also, server mode doesn’t know orientation of display system .

                                          so this would typically be done on system w browser. full system in portrait or landscape.

                                          I don’t know how you would do it just for one browser/tab…

                                            ahh o.k. with installation on a pi there is the config.txt in boot an there you van change the display_rotate =1

                                            O.K: in Container is difficult. Its ok. then thanks
